Carly

Carly is doing excellent! She is now in remission from lymphoma. She treated with Tanovea in the end with success after CCNU failed. She’s weighing 73 lbs - just perfect! She gets fresh food daily and only the highest quality good Only issue she has now is a left rear knee arthritis that causes her to limp at times. We treat that with supplements and lots of doggie massages which she loves. We walk at least 2 miles per day and she loves her walks and joy rides in “her” Jeep.

Carly has been a great addition to our family.  Even Benny the Cat has accepted her and they are getting along (i.e. Benny tolerates her curiosity.)  She's very smart, sweet and funny at times.  She seems quite happy -- just like her foster mom reported.  We keep her exercised, well fed with a healthy diet and keep her constantly involved in our day.  She gets plenty of attention and affection -- especially when she listens to commands as positive reinforcement.
It has been challenging with the cat situation and we were not sure it would work at first but we were patient and understanding. Introducing a new dog and training can be challenging, but we stayed positive and dedicated to making it work.  Carly completed a 6 week basic training and we continue to practice and reinforce the teachings.  She continues to improve and I know she is going to exceed expectations.
She has got me to walk more with her high energy, take much needed breaks from work and my dogs and cat help reduce some of the daily stress by making me laugh or just relax.  She gets up at sunrise with me and is my company all morning long while the boys are sleeping.  Soon we will be jogging partners -- she loves to run!  My son has also benefited in adopting Carly in being part of her training class and having the opportunity to learn more about dogs, responsibility and non-agressive discipline.
She has helped Jack the Boxer endure longer walks and running around the yard playing; additional exercise he needed badly after gaining weight with hypothyroidism.  They get along fine so I would like to think Jack has a new doggy friend.  My husband will tell you that Carly has brought him "more poop to scoop!"  Seriously, he loves Carly too and agrees we were lucky to find her.
At first we considered another boxer puppy experience but decided a rescue was a much better option all around with the proper fit for the dog and our family and lifestyle.  Like any dog, it's a big responsibility and can be challenging at times but we have found adopting a rescue to be so rewarding in all that Carly gives to us each day.  Thank you New Life Boxer Rescue!  She's perfect!

Hi everyone! Carly here!  My foster mom has been soooooooo busy with the puppies and my new foster sister Pearl, that I figured I had better do an update for myself so my forever family can find me!
I love it here in NJ but I am anxious to go out and explore the world with a family that I can call my own.  Foster mom says that I am perfect!  I smile a lot (lol) because what's not to smile at?  The world is a wonderful place and I have lots of food and blankets and LOVE over here so I am a very happy girl.  I just love people.  Anyone who comes to visit makes me wiggle and dance and I can barely control my enthusiasm!!  I just LOVE people-any people, big or small, short or tall, men or ladies, kids, babies-I love them all!  Of course, all the better if they bring me a treat or two :)
Foster mom says that I have only one issue - I have some food allergies but we finally figured out that if I eat the great food we found, no more allergies!!  YAY cause I was pretty itchy until we found that good stuff to eat!
Please fill out that application!  Foster mom says that I could stay forever but I just know there is a family out there waiting for me and maybe it's you!!!!!
Have a wonderful Holiday season and I hope I can wish you a Happy New Year in person!!  Gotta go take a nap now-byeeeeeeeee,  Love Carly

Carly has been having a wonderful time since the warm weather has been upon us.  If left to her own devices, she would spend hours outside just sniffing and investigating and enjoying the day.  I do have to bring her in, much to her displeasure, when the temps are too high or the humidity kicks in.
Carly is just the sweetest, most agreeable little girl ever!  I honestly can't say enough good things about her.  She is totally house-trained, totally crate-trained and makes no demands at all on anyone.  She LOVES people and would play for hours with anyone she meets.  She loves her food and would do most anything for a good treat or a bowl of food-but she's just as happy to do what you want if you just smile at her and tell her she's a good girl.  Carly smiles from ear to ear-REALLY SMILES-all the time!!
Carly does much better with male dogs than female dogs.  She could probably live with a submissive male, a bit older than she is, who would play with her and could teach her the rules in her new home.  She doesn't seem too fond of cats, although at the vet's office, she just was curious and did not go after their two cats. 
I'm surprised that Carly is still with me.  You're really missing out on a great little girl who will love you forever!!!  She loves taking a walk and has improved her leash-walking skills and only pulls a little now.  She does much better with a harness than a collar.
Carly doesn't live with children here but I feel that with adequate supervision, she would be fine with kids older than 5 years of age.  She would love little ones but she is a big girl and could be a bit exuberant for the tiny tots.
Get your applications in!!!  Carly really is a keeper!

Carly is doing really well here.  She has settled in and is loving the wonderful weather.  Carly prefers to be an only girl and get all of the attention.  She is tolerant of other dogs, but I think she would do best as the queen bee in her new home.
Carly has this adorable habit of taking the position of a Pointer when she sees a small animal of any kind.  She lifts her front paw off the ground and points her nose at the animmal.  She doesn't run after or chase the critter-she just points it out...lol!
Carly is very much a dog who follows "scent".  When in the yard or on the leash, most often her nose is on the ground smelling every blade of grass.  She will do that for quite a while and then, when she's decided she knows the lay of the land, she will play!
Carly is waiting very patiently for her forever home.  She is a very sweet girl who loves people! She is quite content to give kisses and hugs and spend all her time with her people. 
Get those applications in, I don't think she will be around long!!

Carly has been with us for about a week now. She came into rescue because she and her fursister were not able to play nicely together and it was thought best to rehome her. 
Carly is a wonderful girl. She is always smiling and happy and loves, loves, loves the company of any and all humans. Carly is a quiet girl who has only barked once or twice and only when she feels the situation really requires her to do it! She gets A's for crate-training and house-training and passed all of her exams on eating 2 good meals a day and sleeping through the night without a peep.
Carly is a big girl and very playful so at this time, I would recommend that she find a family with children over the age of 10. I believe she would love all kids, but might be a bit much for younger ones. I am sure that as she matures, that will change-a pup is a pup afterall!!
Although Carly has not been in the same room with the other dogs here as yet, she has had no issues of any kind with them from inside her crate or, when they are in theirs. She meets them across a baby gate or the fence outside and wiggles her little nub and dances for them. She appears to want to play and we will slowly begin introductions to one or two of the dogs as her time here progresses.
I did include some pictures of this very pretty girl-but we need to work on that :) Outside, Carly still spends most of her time smelling every single blade of grass, so her general position is head to ground lol Inside, she seems to think that this boxy thing that I have in my hand also needs to be smelled, long and often lol so, the pictures are not very creative at this point. More to come, Carly promises!!
